I knew how old she was.
I just didn’t care.

RYKER
Aria Amherst lied about her age the first night we met.
But when I kissed her… I knew exactly how old she was.
And once I kissed her… I needed more.
I wanted all of her. I wanted everything she wasn’t really offering.
Until I found out that her father was making a deal with my business partner.
Then I wanted her more.

ARIA
Ryker North blew into my life like a wall of hot, tattooed muscle.
And did I mention he’s a drummer?
And a businessman?
And thirty-five years old?
And my father is going to kill me when he finds out I’m dating his new client?
It’s… complicated.
But take my word on this. He’s worth every risk I’m taking.

SWEET THING is a full-length standalone older-man-very-young-woman sexy romance filled with forbidden lust, too many ‘first times’ to count, inappropriate touching in public, and an angsty, but perfect, HEA.

Sweet little read.

Reviewed in Australia on 29 April 2019

How good are these sweet little nuggets of joy by JA Huss, first Pretty Thing and now Sweet Thing I've loved them both.
Sweet thing although it's taboo is a light quick read that I found myself not wanting to end, by the end of the book I really was invested and wanted to know more about these characters and I'm not normally one to do that there are far too many books to read to be worried about what's happening with these fictional characters but I really did find myself invested in this couple and I wanted to know more.
I want to mention something else but I'll let her fans pick up on the sweet surprise.
Thank you for another awesome book JA, it's been a pleasure meeting you

So darn cute even though it had a touch of taboo mixed through it.

Reviewed in Australia on 11 September 2019

What a sweet read this was! I’m used to Huss and her mind bending, reads, but this one was just so darn cute even though it had a touch of taboo mixed through it. There was a huge age difference between the characters, and when I first met Aria, she was only 17. Even though it felt a little wrong for these two to hook up, I secretly wanted them to!

Aria was a quiet girl who lived under the shadow of her sister. She was daddy’s little girl and always did the right thing. Staying at her sister's apartment was a way for her to grow and try to do new things. Once she met Ryker she experienced a lot of new things, in and out of the bedroom!

Ryker was infatuated with Aria right from their first meeting. He has always liked his women a little younger as he liked to take his time and teach them all he could about the fun of sex. Ryker would push Aria out of her comfort zone, and explore aspects she probably wouldn’t have done. Ryker was very patient with Aria as she was a little childish at times.

I always love to read what Huss writes, and that this book was a little different. I liked that it was dirty, the sex scenes were super hot and that Aria tried to keep Ryker to their deal but he continued to pursue her anyway. It was such a fun and light hearted read that I couldn't help but devour! I'm so excited to read more stories in this series!

I loved the first book in this series, but OMG #SweetThing Ryker is to die for.
Fantastic read, Aria was certainly a surprise never assume the younger ones all remain #Sweet.
FYI I think Ryker is the one that turned out to be the #SweetThing LOL

Can`t wait for the next book in this series, and the audiobook

Another hit from JA Huss

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 July 2023

If you haven't read JA Huss before this book (and the other two in the trilogy (Sweet Thing, Wild Thing, Pretty Thing) are a great place to start. They are sexy and smart with twistsand put you through the wringer but ao worth it! She is my favourite author bar none and the narration by Christian Fox and Emma Wilder (who does fab male voices) is superb.

I do love the sweet souls of both these two but Ryker, he is the Sweet Thing all in his own!

OMG...GET THIS BOOK!!!! Ryker is def my newest hottest BBF! Just how do you do this to me Julie?

It is no surprise, I Love J.A. Huss! She never disappoints me...but this book oh this book!
Its way different from her more usual style of dark sexy romance with the mysterious kick you in the gut with the whole what the hell just happened? Nope this one has that barely taboo touch and its so very HOT!!! RYKER, I couldn't get enough of, I need more so much more. I couldn't put it down from start to finish, its a fast flowing read as well! Its a stand alone and the second in the shorter books first Pretty Thing an now we have Sweet Thing, and we will have another book added in a couple of weeks.

Ryker is a Hot Bad Boy turned successful business man with his best friend from college, they are in the process of turning a new hot part of town into an even better hip place to Live, give it a face lift to bring more to the new edgy side of town. Kicker Ryker has to get an office in at Artsy place called the Co-Op were he will be his past bad boy self as the drummer he once was, he can pull this off right? He scratches his jaw and thinks I hate being told NO! They need this place to help them get an edge in, and to get to know the people in the business that is booming.

First to me Aria is a breath of fresh air from SO many young girly girls, I truly liked her but I didn't truly dig her name right off and I don't know if I was saying it exactly right but I said it how I imagined it rolling out of his HOT AS Hell mouth, Yeah you get it right? I think Ryker is Hot as HELL, Smokin, Yummy and Older, and So Smart!
Aria is a really smart and a good girl, she's a bit sheltered and totally nerdy. Its right before her 18th Birthday and she is going to house sit for her sister for a month during her Spring break. Her first night she has to sit in on a board meeting for her older sister at the Co-Op. Her pretty, hip and popular sister has her photography studio in. She agrees because she has two things she promised her sister she would be responsible an do, this and take care of her cat and she has listened in on her dads board meeting at his office all the time so it should be easy for a 17 yr old right? And then she take this photoshop class she signed up for that will give her an extra high school credit and look great starting college next year. Her dream is to meet a college guy she can do all kinds of things with that she hasn't done and then brag to anyone an everyone at school about her spring break all on her own in the city. Ok well now imagine how any of this works out!

This book has so much heart, and it is a twister, its got a lot character and emotions and all the feels, just like I love because I wanna feel the books I read, I wanna feel the raw emotions, the heartbeats banging in the chest, the hair pulling frustrations, and for sure that HOT SEX that is never tacky or over done its just right in this one, well its got so much Sweetness to it that "Torture is a Sweet, Sweet Thing" or is it?
I do love the sweet souls of both of these characters. But Ryker, man oh man he is a Sweet Thing all in his own, and why I love that so much Because he doesn't even realize that. so to me "HE is the Sweet Thing" sorry Julie Huss lol
If you like a great romance with just a tiny hint of taboo, some very good hot sex, then this book is for you! Don't miss out on this fabulous fast read. I promise You will not be able to put it down until the very last page as you fall in love with Ryker and Aria as I have and you'll want More, just like I do!!!

Thanks again Julie Huss for another Great Book!!! I Loved It, I want more just like it, or more of it either one! I could see this new neighborhood development being a ton of story lines, Oh Yes I do!!!

This story of Aria and Ryker is sweet with a ton of sexy thrown in. She is 17 when they meet and on her 18th birthday they meet again. Ryker is not looking for anything permanent but that's what he finds. Roller coaster of emotions for both and looking for approval from her parents.

J.A. Huss brings the heat in this sexy and sweet forbidden romance!

Reviewed in the United States on 29 April 2019

Verified Purchase

J.A. Huss brings the heat with a very sexy, hot older man, sweet young girl forbidden romance that is sure to leave readers hot and bothered.

Ryker North is a 35 year old former drummer/real estate developer with a penchant for younger women. Aria Amherst is a high school senior who is getting to play grownup for a month and house-sit for her older sister. When these two meet for the first time, the attraction is instant and smoldering and forbidden and too hard to resist.

These two together come across as a very sweet couple. I kept forgetting that he is almost twice her age. Ryker has always been attracted to younger women, but Aria is by far the youngest he's encountered. Yet she is the one out of anyone he's been with that calls to his heart and soul. So it complicates things when he finds out that she happens to be the daughter of the man his business partner is brokering a deal with.

Julie is a master at writing about a topic that is usually taboo but she writes the story in such a way that has you rooting for the couple all the way through. I wanted to see these two break through the stigma people tend to have when a couple has an age gap like these two do. But Ryker handles the situation like a champ, even though he's the last person on earth who was looking to settle down with one person.

The "firsts" these two experience together are sweet and hot and endearing and had me wishing I could relive all my firsts with someone who was as patient and gentle as Ryker. Julie seamlessly navigates both Ryker and Aria down a path of self-discovery and learning experiences together that I felt made their bond even stronger. Throw in a few twists and turns along the way and we get one steamy, sexy read that is also heartwarming.

I'd love to see a couple of the side characters get stories of their own. I'm excited to see what Julie has in store for us next!

Sweet Thing Indeed!!

Reviewed in the United States on 6 December 2022

I’m on a whirlwind of a new authors tour lately it seems as JA Huss is another new to me author and I LOVED this 2nd book I’ve read by her. This one was way better than the 1st in the series (the actual book that caught my attention but must read series in order!) and that is totally not the norm! Usually, the following books lose steam but Huss did NOT have that problem…at ALL! This book checked all the boxes: Older yummy naughty Alpha Male, young h just starting to spread her wings😼 and a story to back up the drama and the 🔥! Hands down one of the naughtiest books I’ve recently read and the narrators on the audible portion really helped this out too! I grabbed these 1st two books on audible since it said they were leaving on the 20th and I’ve had several JA Huss books on my audible wish list for almost 2yrs now so figured I’d bette check out this author or else! So glad I did! These books get hotter and more drama/passion filled each time! The blurb of this book hit it spot on!
Our H, Ryker is a 35yr old business man in the Real Estate industry that unashamedly started dating way younger women when he turned 30 and owns it. He’s well off, has his head in straight and was only ever looking to have a good time, no relationships!!
Then we have the h, our sweet Aria who was a bit nerdy, moments away from turning 18 and graduating high school, ready to step out of her comfort zone and try new things. She was done being a wall flower and determined to make some lastly memories.
Well folks, this turned out to be an explosive combination! 🥵💦🌶 the things Ryker taught me Uh taught Aria I mean,we’re hot AF! Just yummy times a million! The story took a turn from the obvious to something else and I am here for it!
Overall, this was a great read! This was the one I really wanted to read out of the 2 leaving audible and it was so worth the wait that I’m purchasing it now so I can listen again whenever I want! Christian Fox has a seggy voice, oh my…he’s up there with Troy Duran, Sebastian York and Jacob Morgan, a few of my fav male readers. He really brought Ryker to another level!! Then a new to me narrator Emma Wilder also brought it! She was slightly “breathier” than I liked at times but now I’m just nitpicking because I will happily read more that she narrates in a heartbeat. Another great read/listen. If you want some heat in your life with a blush in your cheeks? Go grab this!
